Re: [FVC]: Team 3652 Robot

"See you at the PA tournament, but where and when is the Michigan one? I haven't seen any information about it, and it isn't listed on the FIRST website..."

Someone sent emails about the regional. The web site is http://automationalleyvex.com/

__________________________________________________ ______________


"Great robot!

I'm curious, why did your team number change from 3267 to 3652?"

We created a new team to enter into 2 tourneys instead of being limited to one more. We had an extra 275$ lying around... so why not lol

I'm not sure there is any rule against doing that....but it seems like you created a 2nd team with the same members as the 1st once so that you could have a greater chance at qualifying for the Atlanta competition. If you had simply wanted to compete in a 3rd tournament you could do so; however, it would not qualify you for Atlanta. This would seem to definetly go against the spirit of Gratious Professionalism. Perhaps I misunderstand the situation.

Re: [FVC]: Team 3652 Robot

thats a misunderstanding.

Its a completely different robot, built with different new parts.

The team represents another organization, and I am the only member that is repeated. Everybody else is new.

Actually the container of balls does not flip over =). If it did, our robot would tip.

You can't tell from the picture, but I'll upload a vid of it in operation after Michigan and Penn
